Heidi: Adapted for Young Readers (Dover Children's Thrift Classics) ペーパーバック – 要約, 2011/11/2
Bursting with energy and an immense love of nature, Heidi proves to have remarkable, transforming powers over those people closest to her: Clara, a young lady from a wealthy German family, Peter, a goatherd, and Peter’s blind grandmother. Even Heidi’s pessimistic grandfather, the old Alm-Uncle, eventually accepts and enjoys the healing effects of Heidi’s innocence, sensitivity, and love.
Translated into many languages, Heidi has also captured the hearts of countless motion picture and television audiences with its heartwarming story of the joys and sorrows of childhood. This abridged version of the novel retains all the enchantment of the original edition and is sure to charm young readers today as much as it did when first published over a century ago.

出版社からのコメント
Everyone calls him the Alm-Uncle because he never comes down to the village, even in the coldest winter, and he's developed a reputation as an evil, godless old hermit. But Heidi soon finds that things are not always what others say they are, makes friends with the Alm-Uncle, and happily runs wild in the glorious mountains with the goat boy, Peter, and his goats.
Suddenly Dete appears again, and Heidi finds herself confined in a stone house in a stone city where she is expected to be companion to the invalid Klara. Dete sees this as a great opportunity for Heidi, one that will provide her with an education and polish. But, bitterly unhappy away from her grandfather and the outdoor life she has grown to love, Heidi at last makes her way back to the Alm. How Klara finally comes to the mountains as well, and the surprising events that follow, form the heartwarming ending to a story that has been loved for generations by children all over the world.

Chapter One
From the old and pleasantly situated village of Mayenfeld, a footpath winds through green and shady meadows to the foot of the mountains, which on this side look down from their stern and lofty heights upon the valley below. The land grows gradually wilder as the path ascends, and the climber has not gone far before he begins to inhale the fragrance of the short grass and sturdy mountain plants, for the way is steep and leads directly up to the summits above.
On a clear sunny morning in June two figures might be seen climbing the narrow mountain path; one, a tall strong-looking girl, the other a child whom she was leading by the hand, and whose little cheeks were so aglow with heat that the crimson colour could be seen even through the dark, sunburnt skin. And this was hardly to be wondered at, for in spite of the hot June sun the child was clothed as if to keep off the bitterest frost. She did not look more than five years old, if as much, but what her natural figure was like, it would have been hard to say, for she had apparently two, if not three dresses, one above the other, and over these a thick red woollen shawl wound round about her so that the little body presented a shapeless appearance, as, with its small feet shod in thick, nailed mountain shoes, it slowly and laboriously plodded its way up in the heat. The two must have left the valley a good hour's walk behind them, when they came to the hamlet known as Dorfli which is situated halfway up the mountain. Here the wayfarers met with greetings from all sides, some calling to them from windows, some from open doors, others from outside, for the elder girl was now in her old home. She did not, however, pause in her walk to respond to her friends' welcoming cries and questions, but passed on without stopping for a moment until she reached the last of the scattered houses of the hamlet. Here a voice called to her from the door: "Wait a moment, Dete, if you are going up higher, I will come with you."
The girl thus addressed stood still, and the child immediately let go her hand and seated herself on the ground.
"Are you tired, Heidi?" asked her companion.
"No, I am hot," answered the child.
"We shall soon get to the top now. You must walk bravely on a little longer, and take good long steps, and in another hour we shall be there," said Dete in an encouraging voice.
They were now joined by a stout, good-natured-looking woman, who walked on ahead with her old acquaintance, the two breaking forth at once into lively conversation about everybody and everything in Dorfli and its surroundings, while the child wandered behind them.
"And where are you off to with the child?" asked the one who had just joined the party. "I suppose it is the child your sister left?"
"Yes," answered Dete. "I am taking her up to Uncle, where she must stay."
"The child stay up there with Alm-Uncle! You must be out of your senses, Dete! How can you think of such a thing! The old man, however, will soon send you and your proposal packing off home again!"
"He cannot very well do that, seeing that he is her grandfather. He must do something for her. I have had the charge of the child till now, and I can tell you, Barbel, I am not going to give up the chance which has just fallen to me of getting a good place, for her sake. It is for the grandfather now to do his duty by her."
"That would be all very well if he were like other people," asseverated stout Barbel warmly, "but you know what he is. And what can he do with a child, especially with one so young! The child cannot possibly live with him. But where are you thinking of going yourself?"
"To Frankfurt, where an extra good place awaits me," answered Dete. "The people I am going to were down at the Bats last summer, and it was part of my duty to attend upon their rooms. They would have liked then to take me away with them, but I could not leave. Now they are there again and have repeated their offer, and I intend to go with them, you may make up your mind to that!"
"I am glad I am not the child!" exclaimed Barbel, with a gesture of horrified pity. "Not a creature knows anything about the old man up there! He will have nothing to do with anybody, and never sets his foot inside a church from one year's end to another.

レビューのフィルタリング中に問題が発生しました。後でもう一度試してください。
挿絵画家のJesse Willcox Smithのイラストは大変有名でネットでも見ることができますが
紙の本は今では無いようだったので再発売になるのを待ってました。
欲を言えば本のサイスがもうちょっと大きめだったらいいなと感じたのと
カラーイラストのページは紙質を高めて色調を良く欲しかったかな、とも思いましたが
中国印刷でもこの値段(1.5Kだった)では仕方ないかもしれません。
これまでRudlf Münger(1918年スイス版、独語)とPaul Hey(1924?、邦訳に福音館書店)の
イラストの付いた本を買いましたがジェシー・ウィルコック・スミスのイラストはやっぱり欲しくなりました。
Knickerbocker Children's Classicsでは他に英訳グリム(59話収録)も買いましたが
Arthur Rackhamのイラストでした。古典児童文学は優れた挿絵画家がイラストを描いている
ことがありますが好きな人には狙い目かもしれませんね。
2016年9月20日追記
2冊目追加購入しました。知人へのプレゼント用です。
この本には函はありませんが布張りハードカバーで体裁もいいです。
この本を読んだので、多少違和感がありましたが、作者の意図は本の方が正確なわけですから、
結果的には、新しい視点で楽しく読めました。
(結果)アニメとは細かいずれがあります。が、大筋は同じだと思います。アルムの自然が美しく描写され、私も行きたくなりました。こちらの原作には賢い番犬は登場しないようです。厳しい家政婦さんがいらっしゃることを思い出しました。楽しく読書ができました。
和訳でなく、英訳を読もうとするということはおそらく私と同じく英語学習に使おうということだと思いますので、これを重点に書きます。
全体的に英文は難しくありません。たまに難しい単語が出てきます。語彙レベルが1万、あるいはそれ以上の単語もちらほらあります。が、それほど頻出するわけではないので、前後の文脈からなんとか読めると思います。上級はもちろん、中級の上の方なら読みこなせると思います。
文章はあまり複雑でないため、平易に感じると思います。大学受験レベルがあれば十分と思います。他のレビューで色々意見がありますが、英検2級レベルという評価を私は肯定します。
学力によっては難しく感じると思います。難しいようでしたら「アルプスの少女 ハイジ (望林堂完訳文庫) Kindle版」を購入し、先に和訳で文意を抑えてから英文を読んでみてください。このKindle版が英語からの和訳のようですので補完にぴったりと思います。どうしてもわからなければ、あるいは確認の目的でこの和訳を使っても構わないと思います。全体で250ページ以上もあり、長丁場ですので無理をして挫折しないようにする方が懸命です。
(今後)折角ですので、未知の単語や気に入った表現を復習したいと思います。
途中からやたら宗教臭い 神がどうのこうの
なんてことに眼をつぶれば よく出来た感動的なお話です。
子供時代に見たアニメの詳細は覚えてませんが、だいたいこんな話だったのかなー?
大人にこそ読んで欲しい素敵なお話です。

This was a pleasant, heart-warming and a feel-good read.
Vale más de lo que cuesta
From the moment I opened the pages of this book, I was transported to the idyllic Swiss Alps, where the charming Heidi and her adventures captured my heart. Johanna Spyri's storytelling is nothing short of enchanting, and her vivid descriptions painted such a clear picture that I could almost smell the alpine flowers and feel the mountain breeze.
What makes this edition particularly special is the care put into the presentation. The cover art is delightful, and the quality of the pages is top-notch. It's a book that feels as wonderful to hold as it is to read.
Heidi's story is a timeless tale of the healing power of nature, the importance of friendship, and the resilience of the human spirit. It's a book that can be enjoyed by readers of all ages, and I have no doubt that it will continue to be cherished for generations to come.
If you haven't had the pleasure of reading Heidi yet, I highly recommend picking up this edition. Whether you're revisiting an old favorite or discovering it for the first time, you won't be disappointed. It's a masterpiece that deserves a place on every bookshelf.
